The best last-minute 2019 Christmas and holidays gifts for golfers

Under $50

Kentwool socks: Kentwool makes the best golf socks, period. They last for years. Your feet don't blister, and they breathe well in summer and winter. You can purchase a single pair of socks for about $25, or you can buy sets of up to six pairs of socks for less than $100.

SwingLogic EFX-1 alignment aid: So many golfers need to work on their alignment. And by so many, I mean pretty much everyone. The SwingLogic EFX-1 tool is a tee with a directional arrow attached to the bottom. Point the tee where you want to go and you can line up the club and your setup to that target. A 3-pack is just $10 and a great stocking stuffer.

A dozen golf balls: There are so many great golf balls in the market right now, but whether you choose the Titleist ProV1 line, TaylorMade's TP5 line, the Srixon Z-Star line or the Bridgestone Tour B series, there are great deals on dozens of balls under $50.

CaddyDaddy cooler bag: Every golfer wants a cool beverage on a hot day on the golf course. So why not BYOB? With this CaddyDaddy cooler bag, which costs $20, your favorite golfer can bring a six-pack-plus and keep 'em cool throughout the round.

Under $100

Bushnell's Phantom GPS unit: Bushnell's handheld Phantom GPS is small, colorful, easy to use and a great value for the holidays at just $80 each. They're a beautiful stocking stuffer, even if it's not quite a stocking-stuffer price.

Under $250

TecTecTec VPRO500 laser rangefinder: This laser rangefinder is $130 for the holidays, and it gets the basics done well. This unit will help your favorite golfer get the right distances all over the course with the push of a button.

Shot Scope V2 package: Shot Scope makes a great product for golf performance tracking, combining a GPS watch which doubles as a sensor reader for the sensors which are screwed in your grips. Golfers will love knowing exactly what they need to do to improve. The package is $119!

Money is no object

SkyTrak indoor launch monitors: If you're looking to make a big holiday purchase for the golfer in your life (which could well be you), then a SkyTrak indoor launch monitor and simulator is the way to go. Normally around $2,000, now you can get SkyTrak for $1,700 from the pros at Rain or Shine Golf.

Flightscope Mevo launch monitor: If you're looking for an entry-level launch monitor, the Flightscope Mevo is a great choice. It's lightweight, works easily, and it connects to apps for your mobile phone which can display and parse your data, offer recommendations for on-course play and so much more. You're saving $50 on the Mevo through Rain or Shine Golf.

SkyCaddie SX500 handheld golf GPS: Not all golf GPS units are created the same, and the SkyCaddie SX500 (or smaller SX400) is one of the best. It's basically like having a smartphone whose only job is helping golfers get distances to holes from anywhere on the course. With great visual elements and quality numbers, a golfer will love this device. Save $60 this holiday season to get it under $350.
